Another adventure on Greyrock

90+ degrees here today and Peter has gone up to the Mountain for some relief. 
But he did not find it!
Just returned from about a 9 mile hike.  He claimed 2 more caches on his way up there, finished all of his water that he brought along, ripped his pants from the bushwhacking he did, but came back with a smile on his face.  Such accomplishment!  I am lucky to do my 2+ mile walk in the morning.  Has been very hot here of late.  But oh so cool in the late evening.  Wonderful sleeping weather.

Fall Color in Vail



View of our condo from the mountain top.

Woke up this AM in Vail after arriving late last nite. Too dark to really see what our surroundings were like.

Walked out onto the porch outside our unit this morning to be treated to a beautiful site.
The ski hill is right outside our window.
Color is beautiful. Makes for a golden mountain side ---- hence the name "Golden Peak".
Below our deck is a mountain stream.
Can't wait to explore the area around here.
Should be interesting. As we understand it, no cars in Vail per se.
Bus, foot or bike transportation.

Let the exploring begin!

Pictures to follow......
